The CounUo OF Monte Cristo.


Something new and interesting in the
dramatic line will be presented at Turner
hall next Monday evening in the rendi-
ton of Dumas thrilling romance, 1.-The
Count of Monte Cristo." Horace Lewis,
o rising young star OF the east, Will per-
senate Edmond Dantes and Monte CrIsto
and his excellent company will fill the
cast. The Burlington, Vermont, Free
Press has this to say Of Mr.. Lewis:
Dumas great romantic drama, "The
Count of Monte Cristo," was presented
at the Howard opera house, last night,
by Mr.. Horace Lewis, the young but
we'll known tragedian, supported by 8
very strong company. The audience was
rather large but yet much smaller than
the merits of the performance deserved.
MIR, Lewis support has been almost en-
tlrely changed since his last appearance
in Monte Oristo' is this city, but the
present cast is in the main stronger
than that of the last yesr. OF the aot-
ing of MIR. Lewis, who took the parts OF
! Edmond Dantes and the Count
de Monte Cristo, it is sufficient
to say il fully sustained the
reputation which he made on his
| first appearance in this city in Deem
Der last. While he has lost nothing in
power, he has perhaps gained something
In the delicacy and fidelity with which
the less striking features of his double
| characterization are brought out. The
scenes at the dungeon and the inn were
especially we'll done. The play is in
tensely interesting and fascinating, anc
though somewhat too long in it's presen'
Epell-bound to lis close.

To the Press and Dakotaisn-DurinR
the present season Mitchell has been
honored by public gatherings OF various
kinds, Early in June the Seventh Day
Adyentists held q camp meeting here
which lasted d week and was largely
attended. Next came the fremeu's
tournament, which was a complete suc-
cess in every way. Aud after this came
the south Dakota teachers association,
which though, rot largely attended, Wa
fairly successful. The welcoming al
dress to the teachers was made by T. +.
Mantzer. mayor OF the city of Mitchell,
and was we'll received. Next on the
programme was the reply to the mayors
| address, which was 20 have been made
by Territorial superintendent Dye.
/ After some delay it was announced that
Superintendent Dye was in town but
"didn't feel able to make q speech"
Gen, w. H.. a. Beadle wal then called
out to respond to the mayors address
and in his usual happy style gave one
Of his importe speeches, which was re-
ceived with unbounded applause.
Our citizens have recently had the
pleasure of listening to some able
lecturers. Among them was the address
of Prof. Reno, of the Methodist unlver-
sity, Of this city. Subject: "Some Ele-
ments of Success" This was one Of the
most practical, stirring common sense
lectures that our people have lately
heard. Prof. Fred o. Eastman gave D
most excellent lecture before the late

Subject: English Grammar" Rev

Yankton attorneys on no particular
business except social calls and ut o late
hour this afternoon he visited the asylum.
What he went there tor nobody knows
and as he is mum nobody will find out
Mr.. Templeton talked more than was
necessary when he visited Yankton last
spring and it is safe to presume that he
will be careful hereafter. A reporter
met him this morning and asked him
what he was dong here.
He replied, nothing; Just want to see
The trustees q few minutes-that's all.
Harris will be here tonight and we ex-
poet to leave in the morning"
"What is there IN this report about a
committee of investigation, consisting
OF yourself, Mir. Harris, Mr.. Tyler and
others having been appointed asked
the reporter.
Nothing ct all that 1 know of. No
one but Harris and myself are to be here
that I have heard Of"
MIR. Templeton seemed anxious to
drop that subject, and he dropped also 9
bit OF information concerning railroad
taxation which may be of inrerest. He
said that all this railroads except the
Northern Pacific had paid their taxes,
and that the Northern Pacific had made
q proposition to the territory to pay
taxes on its gross earnings and also on
Its lands according to their assessed
valuation, but Auditor Ward does not
care to accept the proposition,
because he thinks the lands are
assessed too low. Another matter
is also in the way OF the auditor accept
ing the proposal. The Northern Pacifc
has not paid the tsx on its gross earnings
for 1886 and Mr.. Ward wants that matter
straight before he will consider the pro-
position. 81 believe" said Mr.. Temple
ton, shat if the railroads do not act
honestly in this matter the next Iegisla-
ture will scorch them. May be the
Northern Pacific will pay and may be
it won't, but / think il will"
